摘要: Background: Increased EGFR expression has been observed in many tumours. This overexpression usually correlates with a more advanced disease stage, poorer prognosis and worse chemotherapy response. inhibition considered an attractive approach cancer treatment. Various strategies to intervene signalling have developed, mainly receptor of extracellular domain using anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies on the intracytoplasmic small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Cetuximab panitumumab are most developed antibodies, there is plenty published information about their current status Objective/methods: In this review we focus Zalutumumab, IgG1 completely human antibody. Results/conclusions: Apart from inhibition, another anti-neoplastic effect zalutumumab also postulated, mediated by immune mechanisms, specifically antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity...
